Yeah, but I got absolutely roasted in YouTube comments for pointing out some potential shortcomings in the architecture. I’m not about to claim a high level of authority on the topic, though I’m an old man who has been in the game for a while, but the people that were totally confident really just seemed very eager to accept the passing of their credentials in a very sketchy way to get a slightly different messaging experience.
Just use signal folks.
If everyone you text with are on iPhone anyway, there’s no logical reason to switch iMessage off and use SMS.
Never personally had any issues with iMessage (not sure which parts you think “suck” and are “unstable”).
80% of my contacts use iMessage, the rest use Signal.
